About 3 Barrett Close
3 Barrett Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Romford (RM3 7AY). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1502 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £556,000 sits 66% above the 2009 sale of £335,000.
